[jessica47421]

i have a goby that i have never seen eat? do they hide and eat alot or is there something i should do for this guy?

What kind of goby/. i had one die from starvation, it can be hit or miss im afraid.

i have a yellow watchman goby and pistol shrimp pair and mine eats fine but if you don't see him eating they will eat pods in your tank if they really want to eat. Are you making sure that the food gets down to the bottom for him?

i have a watchman goby which i feed pellet food, so it will fall to the bottom.

yeah the food goes to the bottom right in front of him and i dont see him eat any of it ? just curious.

If your tank is well established he may just be eating pods, etc. I only recently have seen mine eat pellets, once I took out my dottyback. I have had him for a year and he hasn't starved...

I had a watchman that wouldn't come out to eat for days at a time, but he was always alright. I kept him for about a year before I sold my setup.
